Who cares


Олден Уитмен. Какое место вы отводите себе среди писателей (ныне здравствующих) и писателей недавнего прошлого?

Владимир Набоков. Я часто думаю, что должен существовать специальный типографский знак, обозначающий улыбку, — нечто вроде выгнутой линии, лежащей навзничь скобки,, именно этот значок я поставил бы вместо ответа на ваш вопрос.

Интервью в апреле 1969 года (перевод А. Г. Николаевской). Опубликовано в сборнике Nabokov V. Strong Opinions.

Could I love him more?

the south shall rise againbarbie

“..ten thousand years of culture fell from him.He could have
been a cave dweller.He sounds like he’s at the edge of the fire,
or in the deep snow,or in a ghostly forest,the coolness of
conscious obvious strength,full tilt and vibrant with danger”.

the seaside





The sea is gorgeous now.

Went for a walk about town(Tel Aviv and Jaffa) with Noogie from darkroom forum on
d-spot.Great fun.Shot a couple of rolls.

I now started using two RF’s,both with 35/2.8 and loaded with the same film(plus-x is a recent favorite). They are faster to change then reload one camera,and then I reload both over coffee or something. I shot all day long with no meter. I dont use it much but now it is dead I feel it’s absence.

I finished reading “Chronicles Volume One – Bob Dylan” and “Bound for Glory” by Woodie Guthrie several days ago.Both are very good.

textures

Listening to a lot of MASSIVE ATTACK(Mezzannine, 100th window).
Purchased Chronicles 1 by Dylan and Bound for Glory by Woody Guthrie.

Started studying(and hating it) for my Industry managment engeneering degree(very small steps).

Adi

This is Adi(emphasis on the I). We served in the army together. She was kind enough to pose for me.

Watched “six string samurai” it’s so deeply idiotic it’s brilliant. I want horn rimmed glasses.

I read all the six of the Akira mangas.I dislike comics and manga but this one is brilliant.

new amp

pictures from the pepsi can camera from Ashdod.


I still am not sure if I like the toy camera or nor. Maybe a 6×6 or 6×4.5 one will better suit my fancy. The best would be a monocle lens for my nikon but I need a dead nikkor for that – anyone wants to find me one?

I got a 70ies sony amp(high mid range) to change my 70ies sony amp(crappy entry level). Goddamn what a difference. Records with no hum. The old one will either go to someone or will be connected to my computer.

I finished reading “Good As Gold” by Joseph Heller.It is rather good but all of his book seem to be the same(with the exception of “God Knows”) “Catch 22” being the best of them.
